[Cardiovascular changes based on ECG data in workers involved in the elimination of the sequelae of the accident at the Chernobyl Atomic Electric Power Station].
122 persons who had participated in the Chernobyl nuclear power station disaster control were passed through ECG examinations, as a result of which susceptibility to bradycardia was revealed. To exclude a marked vagal influence on the myocardium, orthostatic, atropine and ephedrine tests were performed. Weakened reactions to atropine and ephedrine indicated a secondary vagotomy caused by the lowered sensitivity of beta-adrenoreceptors.
